1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The current standard treatment for placenta accreta is a hysterectomy, which carries a significant risk of hemorrhage. Although prophylactic uterine artery embolization (UAE) is established as an effective means of minimizing perioperative bleeding, there are few reports of its use early in pregnancy with invasive placenta. A 45-year-old woman, gravida 6, para 1, at 11 weeks of gestation presented with heavy, painless uterine bleeding and was diagnosed with a spontaneous abortion complicated by cervical pregnancy and placenta accreta. The patient underwent bilateral UAE followed by gravid hysterectomy. This case report encourages prophylactic UAE prior to abdominal hysterectomy in patients with early gestational cervical pregnancy and placenta accreta to minimize blood loss during surgery.
